THE HINDU HARANGUE is a sharp word, surgical knife intended to help
remove from modern Indian society bowels the cancerous tissue in order to
restore to it its health. It will hurt, but also help heal, a big urgent need of our
nation, for, the surgeon knows best. In another sense, it is an invitation to the user
to deepen their individual grasp of the Vedic nation in a modern national context. It
argues,, and thus aims at contributing to the public forum discussion on our
mishandled nation's crucial matters. The content is heretic, not appeasing; but
then that is the much-needed spice to garnish social advancement recipes. As
they say, Karma matters. Therefore, control over Karma matters. The quality
of that control, hence of our Karma, is a direct function of the knowledge that
we possess. THE HINDU HARANGUE is an extended assay on deepening the
understanding of nation's issues and so strengthening citizen grip on the
nation's knowledge stores. Knowledge does subsume completeness, the perfection
that is well lighted in all its multifarious dimensions including those Tamas-
the dark as given in ignorance. The book should help light up matters while it
seeks to enhance both citizen sensitivities and citizen sensibilities a la India
Redeeming.
